Week 34 How Big is the Baby at 34 Weeks Pregnant?
By 34 weeks pregnant, your baby is now 4.7 pounds and just shy of 18 inches long!!
Your Baby's Growth and Development
Your baby is continuing to grow and fill out during pregnancy week 34. Not much is changing in your baby, except he is adding on valuable weight. Keep in mind that the baby weights presented each week in our week to week guide are only estimates. Some babies will weigh in a bit larger and others a bit smaller. Some babies will also be longer or shorter. Every baby is unique.
There are many factors that make estimating the weight of your baby challenging. Many women like to get an estimate of how big their baby is during their prenatal visits. However, most estimates, unless calculated by an ultrasound, can be as much as 1 pounds off in either direction.
The discrepancy is due to the difficulty of guessing how much the baby will weigh combined with the placenta and amniotic fluid.
During an ultrasound, your healthcare provider will take many measurements to help estimate the baby's weight and size. Among the more common measurements include the diameter of your baby's head, the circumference of the head and abdomen and the length of your baby's femur. Estimates of your baby's weight by ultrasound are still not percise when performed late in your pregnancy.
Your Growth and Development
Your uterus at 34 weeks pregnant is now just about 5 to 6 inches from the top of your navel. You may notice that you look similar to or different from other pregnant women who are as far along as you are. Every woman carries her baby differently. Some tend to carry more wide, while others carry lower or higher. You may even carry differently from one pregnancy to the next!
There are many women who believe the way you carry represents the gender of your baby, but by and large, this is an old wives tale! It is fun to guess however, particularly if you are waiting until delivery to determine the sex of your baby!
Changes in You
You probably are getting a little bit uncomfortable by pregnancy week 34. You are also likely to start feeling anxious to meet your newborn baby.
Some women start to worry about whether or not their baby will fit through the birth canal. Generally, your healthcare provider will not be able to predict whether or not your baby is too big to fit through your pelvis. This diagnosis is typically made during labor, when your physician can determine how the baby is fitting into your pelvis.
Just because you are petite doesn't mean that you won't be able to delivery a large baby. There are many petite women who go on to deliver babies 8 pounds or more.
After 34 weeks pregnant, some women also start wondering when their baby will 'drop'. Dropping is the term that refers to the process whereby your baby's head enters the birth canal. This change in position can happen anytime, but usually a few days prior to delivery.
When you do drop, you should notice a change in your abdomen. You might notice that your baby is resting lower. You might also notice that it suddenly becomes easier to breathe, in part because you have 'lightened' your load and now have more room available in your upper abdomen.
After your baby drops, it is common to start feeling some pressure in the vagina. Some women worry that their baby might fall out. Talk to your doctor if the pressure is severe. Your healthcare provider can check to see exactly how low the baby's head is. Usually everything will be fine, you simply need to adjust to your baby sitting a little lower than you are used to.
